Name glyphs
In sitelen pona, name glyphs are special glyphs which represent personal names instead of words. Unlike standard names in cartouches, many name glyphs do not indicate pronunciation.
Rationale
List of name glyphs
This is a list of name glyphs present in any font. These glyphs are not included in the UCSUR. Therefore, they can only be typed using Private Use Area (PUA) codepoints, zero-width joiner (ZWJ) sequences of other codepoints (mainly but not all sitelen pona), or OpenType ligatures.
